The Woman From Hell

Chapter 923

I had never spent National Day with so many people. I immersed myself in the lively atmosphere. I kind of knew now why having friends and family was so important.

A mundane and peaceful life was desirable.

After bustling about for almost the whole morning, food was ready in the afternoon and everyone came to the dining room.

Cassey was pregnant, so she had a big appetite. However, eating would not keep her mouth shut because she never once stopped talking since sitting a t the table.

Quinn had probably been alone for too long that she enjoyed talking to Cassey very much. The two got deeper and deeper into the conversation. They found more and more things they had in common with each other as they chatted, ignoring those around them completely.

Petra was in charge of putting food on everyone’s plates and urging them to eat more.

Grayson could not care less about others and was merely concerned about her. He constantly put food o n her plate, urging her to eat more.

There was suddenly a piece of meat on my plate.

When I looked up, I met Theo's tender eyes. I smiled. "D o you want me to overeat?"

I had already eaten a plate of food. If it were not because I was afraid of wasting food, I would have put down my cutleries and stopped eating a long time ago.

I certainly could not fit any more meat, but I could still manage to eat some vegetables.

Theo raised his eyebrows. "It's alright even if you overeat. There are several boxes of digestive tablets on the coffee table. Didn't you see them?"

I could not help but laugh. "Who prepared them?"

Theo darted Caleb a glance.

I followed his gaze and immediately knew why.

Caleb was afraid that Cassey would eat without restraint, so he prepared some digestive tablets in advance.

While listening to Cassey's laughter, I placed a piece of roasted beef on Theo’s plate. "Since you're worried about overeating, you should eat more too."

Theo chuckled. "Thanks, honey."

I blushed when he called me that. In order to conceal my embarrassment, I quickly got up to put food on other people's plates.
